Very pleased to have Tom Kirk as an Ipswich fan on Tuesday night at Pompey. Busby for us at home to Preston at the weekend, normally a safe official.
Tom Nield with a well deserved Friday night game in my opinion after his performance on Saturday. And I will be a guest at Leicester so will get to observe Kitchen for the first time this season. Other good games for the two Smiths and Hallam and another game for Corlett.

Great games for Hooper and Jones. Salisbury with another opportunity to impress at Forest and Robinson makes a return to the middle after what seems like a very long absence from the premier league.
Once again, I will bring up Michael Oliver’s appointments this time. It just seems silly to appoint him Saturday, and with the PGMO knowing he has a champions league appointment, then give him another Saturday game. Just seems poor man management to me.

I'd really like them to go further in trialing stopping the clock each time the ball goes out of play. Maybe they'd need to shorten the length of the match, but would in theory help stop this time wasting.
In principle, I support the idea of stopping the clock whenever the ball is dead and playing a fixed amount of time. In practice, however, I have two significant concerns. First, how would this be implemented at levels below the professional game? It would require dedicated timekeepers, which is simply not affordable, and so would almost certainly lead to different Laws being applied at different levels of the sport, an outcome I find highly undesirable. Second, once the clock is routinely stopped, broadcasters would inevitably push to extend these pauses to accommodate advertising with the result that matches would last even longer.
You just stop your watch. Isn’t particularly difficult. Might end up hurting your finger in the end, but you’ll just have to hope they can keep the ball in play!
With the advertisements; that’s realistically going to happen anyway. I’m surprised they haven’t printed sponsorships in the centre circle yet……
They'd forget though, or more likely forget to restart it. Even when I was relatively experienced i often forget to restart the watch, to the extent that I gave up stopping it unless there was obviously going to be a very lengthy stoppage.
And to underline how easy it is to forget: despite having been reading and writing about the challenges of remembering to start and stop watches, I forgot to start my watches at the beginning of the second half while acting as Senior Assistant on Saturday. I later contrived a brief conversation with the referee to establish how long we had been playing before anyone asked me how long was left.
